But sometimes a bit of the novelty factor can be a wonderful thing. Let’s just forget our snobbish side and appreciate a weird, fun thing.

That weird, fun thing is Bluechai Tea.

Bluechai Tea is a tea brand that specialises in blue tea. Yes, we are talking tea that is blue, which would be exciting in itself. But what makes this tea even more thrilling is the fact that some Bluechai Tea CHANGES COLOUR.

Their Bluechai Colour-Changing Blue Tea changes from blue to pink with the addition of lemon juice. It’s pretty magical.

Now, we have tried this tea for ourselves, and we have to say that the actual taste of the tea might not meet the expectations of anyone with a true passion for fancy teas.

With all the lemon juice we poured in for the most dramatic colour-changing effect, the tea just mostly tasted like lemon. Makes sense.

If you aren’t bothered about the colour-changing magic, mind you, and are happy to just marvel at blue tea, the tea without lemon juice tastes a bit more delicate, with a slightly floral lemongrass flavour.

That being said, if you do actually value the taste of your tea, we’d recommend trying the black goji berry tea, or getting the butterfly pea colour-changing extract and adding that to whatever herbal tea you fancy.
